- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1½ tsp corn starch
- ¼ cup water
- For the cobbler

- ½ cup sugar

- ¼ cup + 2 tbsp very cold butter, cut in cubes

Instructions
To prepare the bottom fruit layer:
Bring the cherries, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon to a slow simmer for about 5 minutes.
Dissolve the corn starch in the water.
Stir into the fruit mixture and then pour the fruit into a 9x9 inch baking pan.
For the cobbler dough
Sift together the flour, sugar, and baking powder.
Cut the butter in with a pastry blender or by pulsing it in a food processor until it resembles a coarse meal.
Beat together the egg, milk and vanilla extract.
Add to dry ingredients and mix together just until dough forms.
Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto the hot cherries.
Bake in a 350 degree F oven for approximately 30 minutes or until the cherries are bubbling at the center of the pan and the top of the cobbler is golden brown.
Serve with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream or thick cream.
